Ambulatory total hip and knee arthroplasty: a literature review and perioperative considerations

CONCLUSION: Anesthesia for TJA has evolved as such that same-day discharge will become the norm for selected patients. It is essential to establish pathways for early discharge to prevent adverse effects and readmission in this population. As more data are generated from an increased volume of ambulatory TJA, more robust evidence will emerge for the ideal anesthetic components to optimize outcomes.PMID:38504037 | DOI:10.1007/s12630-024-02699-0
